Thank you to our generous Sponsors
Volunteer
There would be no Festival of Art, Wine & Music if it were not for the amazing volunteers. Throughout the weekend, it's the 500 volunteers make this community event happen.Ā From the beer-slingers to the recycle-dumpster guys who squish down the cardboard, ALL of our volunteers are awesome. Most volunteers are coordinated through the Chamber, that sign-up app is usually available in April.
Sponsorship
Businesses looking to grow their marketing presence and brand really should consider sponsoring the Festival on some level. Each year, anywhere from 60,000-90,000 people attend the 2-day event;; in addition, we also promote our sponsors in the weeks leading up to the event. Businesses are promoted on our various social media pages/platforms, a number of websites and in print; it all depending on the level of sponsorship that best fits the needs for your organization.
Beverage & Ticket Booths
One specific way businesses can participate is by becoming a Beverage Booth Sponsor. For businesses looking to make a face-to-face connection with the community, this really is the best option.Ā Meet thousands of potential clients and build your team comradery over the course of the Festival.
Note: all Booth volunteers must be over the age of 21.

Vendor / Artistan Booths
Showcase and sell your crafts at Marin County's largest public festival. Vendors love the Festival of Art, Wine, and Music because of Grant Avenue is lined with shady trees, the music is at the perfect volume and all of the beverage booths are spread throughout the festival so every space gets great foot-traffic.
Wine & Wineries
#NovatoFAWM boasts anywhere from 35-50 unique labelsĀ and varietals of wine each year. Sample local and international flavors.
Local Flavors
Local tastes from around the North Bay give our Festival unique flavors. Everything under the sun is available to you and your family!
